See this advice on BBC's 'Don't Get Done, Get Dom' not sure if it has been mentioned on the forum before. If your card and pin has been used fraudulently and you are certain the card has not left your possession and you report such issue to the bank, it appears that they are very quick to tell you to cut your card up in…

Youngest son (13) comes home from school yesterday and first thing he says is Mum I need new shoes??

Spectrum Interactive At Premier Inn
Spectrum Interactive are a bunch of crooks! They took... No, not really I'm just being over dramatic. But I am a little annoyed.

Misleading retail practises at Rohan
Went to Rohan to buy a pair of trousers and a shirt this weekend. A display of trousers attracted me with signs “Mid season clearance, save £12”. I spend some time in the shop as they had to find the right size and first brought the wrong design. I had them go back to find the right colour in the design that had the £12…

Fake Pandora Jewellery
Just want to warn anyone to avoid doing any business with an on line company https://www.pandorajewelery-charms.net who have a glossy convincing website and proclaim themselves as an official on line retailer.

Sharp Practise at ASDA Home Delivery
Anyone who uses ASDA home delivery shopping should check what they're getting. I have noticed that when ordering things by weight (veg and meat etc) there is a tendency to deliver more than ordered by 50% - 100%. Obviously this is going to cost as well as leading to waste. I've put in a complaint and am awaiting a response.

Tesco Ink Recycling Problems
With Tesco being stingy on points the 100 points per recycled ink cartridge looks attractive. However I have had many problems with items not being received, failing electrical tests etc etc. Never have I had a full amount accepted without some problems. If anyone else had any problems with the scheme? Its been operated by…

Vodaphone vent!
When I went to top up my PAYG the message says they have changed the system to make it easier!!!! No they haven't! The new system reserves 1p before they take the £30 top up I wanted. This sets of an automatic Santander scam alert and blocks my card! So Vodaphone please talk to Santander and sort this out.

Freemans refusing to pay commission, grr

I have been a Freemans customer for over 20 years and as I don't intend to order anything else, I want to close my account. My commission stands at £4.78 and I knew that to claim it, it needed to be £5. So I ordered two towels - that I didn't…

An hour later I went back and paid for some photos. Once again I added the points to my card. I was very surprised to see exactly 1000…
